A fascinating insight into the remarkable natural history
and science collections held by Te Papa.
Since the Colonial Museum opened in 1865 and the first director,
Sir James Hector, began collecting items of geological and
natural history significance, the collections of New Zealand’s
national museum have become enormously significant – not to
mention enormous. The objects housed by the museum range
from fossilised bones of the extinct Haast’s Eagle and specimens
collected by Joseph Banks on Cook’s first voyage to deep-sea-
dwelling fishes and a plethora of insects. In this fascinating
book Te Papa’s science team of experts showcase 100 collection
objects that demonstrate the breadth and depth of the collection
and the museum’s important ongoing research.
Susan Waugh is the Acting Head of Science at Te Papa.
